    Hi all, Looking for some advice on a high launch shaft for my TSi3 3/20 degree hybrid please. I currently have the Atmos TS 85 Blue but the flight is lower than I'd like. I know the TSI2 head is higher launching but I don't like the head shape as much.

    I have the U505 4/22 degree with the Hzrdus RDX 80 black, and Steelfiber 110's, soft stepped stiff in my irons and have no problem at all with getting the right flight with these. Driver SS is around 100-102mph, fairly quick transition and take light to medium divots with my irons if this helps.

    Any shared thoughts, recommendations and experiences would be appreciated. I'll likely try to get fit when the new TSR hybrids come out but in the interim I'd like to fix this one issue I have in my bag.

    Thanks in advance, Tony

    Several options. If you like the Atmos, try to find a 75 weight model. I still use a TS2 hybrid 19 that originally had the Tensei Blue shaft. I had an Atmos TS Red 75 that fit it and it produced a higher launch and less dispersion but about the same distance. Last March I stuck a Graphite Design AD DI Hybrid 75 shaft in it and for me it produces about the same launch but much better control and distance. The best shaft I've ever played in my hybrid. Economically I would stick it out until you get the TSR fitting, and definitely consider the AD DI shaft. I know it's a bit extra but to me it was worth the cost.

    Thanks Barry, I have the AD DI 7S in my TSR2 16.5 and agree its a great shaft. Weight wise just wondering if the 75g would be too light given that's the same as my fairway. Waiting might be the best option and then retro fitting the TSi for my backup holiday bag once I have a better fit. If the new hybrids are as good as the TSR's I doubt I'll be able to resist!
    Thanks for your thoughts on the subject, much appreciated.

    There's a lot out there Tony. I've got a Project X Evenflow Blue (85 grams) in my 21 degree, and I love the flight. Aside from that, the Ventus Red and as Barry mentioned, the Graphite Design AD Di Hybrid come to mind.

    Thanks Mike, I've never hit the Evenflow but the online specs say it has a highish flight. Aldila Black and Tour Blue are other potentials I've considered.

    Also tempted by the Hzrdus RDX Red as I quite like the Black version in my U505. Thinking the Red would be similar feel but with the higher flight. Think I'm best to wait and get fit for the TSR's and then see.

    Thanks for the feedback though, much appreciated.
